4 One thing I have asked from the Lord,that will I seek after—for me to dwell in the house of the Lordall the days of my life,to see the beauty of the Lord,and to inquire in His temple.
5 For in the time of troubleHe will hide me in His pavilion;in the shelter of His tabernacle He will hide me;He will set me up on a rock.
6 Now my head will be lifted upabove my enemies encircling me;therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.
7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice!Be gracious to me and answer me.
8 When You said, “Seek My face,”my heart said to You, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.”
9 Do not hide Your face far from me;do not thrust Your servant away in anger;You have been my help.Do not leave me nor forsake me,O God of my salvation.
10 If my father and my mother forsake me,then the Lord will take me in.
